Fantasy Baseball
Sometimes a pitcher performs so well in the early going that you must drop your preconceived notions about said arm and embrace the new normal. So far on the young season the Marlins Zac Gallen is a shinning example of dropping what you know and buying in on a possible breakout. At this point there has to be thoughts of shipping Jose Urena for Gallen in the Miami front office. Two starts into the young season with New Orleans, and Gallen has turned in two strong starts going a total of 13 innings allowing one run, on 3 hits, and walks, while striking out 19 batters.
Nearly the entire prospecting community has Vlad as the top prospect in Baseball, and with good reason he's a special hitter. You can't watch him hit a baseball and not be blown away by how great his hands are. Not too many hitters at any level can be fooled but keep there hands back and drive a ball 380' to right center. He's a tremendous hitter, so I get the love. Having said all of that. This is fantasy baseball and in recent years speed has taken on an increased importance because it's getting harder and harder to find players who run that won't kill you everywhere else.
